Crafting and Card Making

[Doris_Pinks]

hehehe Kitten, I quite agree!
I love crafting, but find it a bit expensive over here. :'(
Have done all sorts, stained glass, pottery (no kin at home tho) Used to do patchwork and needlework. Found as the kids arrived, the crafting levels went down! But at one point I was demostrating crafts for a department store, one of my fave jobs! Got to play without the cost to me  ;D ;D
BUT, teenage daughter want's me to teach her how to use a sewing machine, oh joy of joys! So have dug out the "family" machine, and put it in for a service, now looking around the house thinking, hmm those blinds need shortening, that blind needs making etc. etc.!
Have used this site for card making, they were pretty good!

Not a crafty person myself, but this site: http://mrsl.forumsplace.com/ has some crafty peeps on it, lots of tips/hints etc I think.

Spot on here sounds great, I could learn so much, I have never done cards,it wpould also be a way of sharing stuff much like a seed swap. XX Jeannine

It would be nice and convenient to have a craft section here but it opens the demand for 'other interests' and that's a road to a well mixed up site on which is, and should basically remain, a garden/allotment site. Also as we have seen, Dan is quite a busy chap with what's already here.

I have had a mind in the past to create a forum for household/DIY tips and advice. If there's enough call for it I'll set up a forum ( mainly ) for crafts of all description but with the other in there too. Maybe now would be a good time?

Reaction? Thoughts? Suggestions?

Prink - I have a room full of card/scrapbooking stuff that I have barely touched. Planned on making all my own xmas cards this year but never got round to it LOL... Have some gorgeous scrapping papers etc but again I just never get round to it... always seem to be working, lottying or housework. No time for crafts  :(

I chose to cut out working - well I didn't really choose it !!!!!

Happy crafting

I've set up a forum. Obviously it's empty at the moment, but if there's support enough then it stays.
